Sooo I kinda wanna go to go to a swanky New Years Eve party. I mean my friends are awesome and unintentionally intimidating, on some level, and it's so much fun getting dressed up in something special. Remember that socialite that Marge Simpson went to high school with who didn’t know how to pump her own gas because she was that damn chic and she wrongly believes Marge is also chic because Marge is wearing that Chanel suit that she bought on sale at the outlet mall in Ogdenville and Marge has to keep ripping up the suit and re-sewing it to make it look like a new outfit or else the country club chicks will catch on that she’s a big fraud who shops at Ogdenville? That pretty much describes me, except that I shop at Target and I somewhat know how to pump gas. So anyway, I immediately start wondering how I could get all dressed up for dinner at a friend's house. Because that's what New Year's is all about right? Dressing up and getting fanc-a-fide. The black dress I bought for my Aunt's burial is about the fanciest thing I have and I begin searching through my closet for something other than a funeral dress to wear. I think I might go with sparkles or sequins. That sounds about right, me in sparkles and everyone else in jeans...story of my life. What's wrong with getting dressed up? It's New Years after all... So instead of hob-nobbing with the chic and fabulous, I’ll be spending my New Year’s Eve with friends sneaking Cupcake wine into my solo cup and trying to get the kids to play "quietly" as we adults drink ourselves into the new year... PS. Three posts in a week. I am on fire. PSS. I still will look fabulous. PSSS. Or maybe just a little sparkle here and there.

Yes, we've all had terrible days and off days and such, but me I have like unusually BAD days. Not one thing happens several things happen, and then I just wanna get back under the covers and hide. Like for example, I had something in my teeth after lunch, ummmm no floss, so what's a girl to do?? Oh I have a sweater with a string on it, I'll rip that off and use it to floss. MISTAKE!!! Not only did it not work, but then I had fur in my mouth and my sweater started to unravel. Also I've worn my shirt backwards for over half of the day, and had someone point it out...Yikes, talk about embarrassing!!! That same day I got the wrong coffee at Starbucks, had to go in and get the right one, which meant late to work.. Then take this morning, I put on my lip liner and thought, wow that looks dark. Oh it must be the lights in the bathroom. No biggie, then I go to look for my eye pencil and behold it is already in my hand, why yes I did put eyeliner on my lips. Oh I'll just wash it off, no go. Not only is it water proof but it also won't budge. I'm doomed to have the darkest lip liner on all day. Then the coffee fiasco, I like coffee, like a LOT!!! So much Starbucks employees know my drink and my name,(I'm not sure whether I should be proud or if that's just plain sad.) So I usually stop for Starbucks in the morning before work, well as usual, I'm running late and can't stop today. So I figure I'll just have some at work, right? Well I like my regular coffee with cream and sugar and even some type of French vanilla something in it. Well, not only did I spill the creamer everywhere, I also burnt my mouth and hand, because of the spill. Speaking of running late, my child has like 14 tardies, because of course I'm always late, which makes her late and therefore I get ugly letters and phone calls. This is great parenting by the way...I tell you, I'm like a omen for bad days. Hopefully the rest of today will be better, my shirt is on correctly and I have matching shoes on and eye liner on my lips...It's gonna be a great day!!!

Well....Since I haven't blog in oh like FOUR YEARS, I figure it's about time to start up again. Life is pretty crazy. One kid has graduated high school, one started high school and my baby is in the 5th grade, my how time flies when your not looking. Christmas is coming and I WISH I could say I had all my shopping done, but nope....I'm a Christmas eve shopper. Yes, I'm the mad insane lady looking for anything to make my family some-what happy. I wish I was a Mom who got all her shopping done in like October, but I always wanna give it to my kids then...I'm bad, I know this. Once in a blue moon I will buy something before December, but rarely. Those Mom's are like the envy of the rest of us slacker Moms...You know who they are, always dressed up, makeup done, hair that's perfect..Yea sooo not me. I did do some online shopping in my sweats and t-shirt, and that was fun!!! I think I should probably do all my shopping this way. I don't know about clothing, some stuff you HAVE to try on and then resend it back, such a whippin. Buuuut, sure is easy to buy!! Well, now that you know I'm actually alive and not boarded the crazy train, just yet, I hope to continue my witty stories and fun projects with any of you that still are following me. I hope someone stayed! Much love as always, ~T
